Seems Josh Helmstettler caught a couple of NICE ones. I have a photo of 3 spots that are close to 15 lbs. Big fish was 6.02 lbs. I do not know if he is certifying it or what, but THAT is a nice stringer of spots. OH, it came on Lake Alan Henry. Don't know if Josh comes on here, or not, but if so, I would like to hear some details on it. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck. There, corrected the spelling of his last name. Sorry about that.

Biggest spot I have caught was a 3.61 out of Lake Lewisville over 20 years ago on a Friday Night T. That put up a great fight. Biggest I have caught out of AH is 2-11, but still a great fight. I can only imagine what a 5+ lber would feel like.

Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Some nice pics on Facebook. Great fish. I caught this one last fall on AH. 20 inches and 4 lbs. fought like a freight train.

Just curious, but is this a spot? I caught her earlier today and just assumed LMB, but after looking at the pics on this post, she really resembles a spot?

Agree with Brad. That's not a spot.
